Hello,
<snip>
*Next Meeting of the Local Chapters Group*
The local chapters working group will meet at 6pm BST on Weds 30th
September to discuss these issues and others. The agenda of the
meeting is:
* What is the process for creating draft agreements and approving
local chapters? This includes a timeline for getting the first
chapters set up and identifying any discussion items that the local
chapters group feel may be blockers to moving forward with local
chapter agreements.
* What is the process for continuing to refine the current agreement?
* Which parts of the agreement should be standard and which could be
amended for each group?
The local chapters group will report back to this list after our
meeting next week. In the meantime, please comment on the agreement
on the wiki page, or mail us directly at lo...@osmfoundation.org.
As agreed in an earlier thread on talk [1] can we have an email list
for this subject. How about talk-local? Can we have it now!
It seems sensible to set this up and use it and the wiki to work
things through for a while before considering the need for a
conference call. If you do make a conference call then please take
minutes and put them on the new public email list for people to read
who were not on the call. I don't believe any decisions should be made
on the conference call. Btw, I notice that there was a call on 24
August 2009; can the minutes for that meeting be published prior to
any further call?
Fyi, the 'proposed agreement' on the wiki makes no mention of a
payment of £10, indeed the finance section starts "Local chapters and
the OSMF being separate legel entities have their own sources of
income like membership fees and donations and decide on their own what
to do with their money. There is no automatic payment of money from
local chapters to OSMF or vice versa" . Are you referring back to the
original document? I believe we should all be working from the version
on the wiki.
Thanks for pushing this forward Nick,
Peter
